About Us

Who are NHS Elect?

NHS Elect is an NHS members' network which was established in 2002. We are part of the NHS, providing NHS organisations with high quality, not-for-profit support to supplement in-house management teams while simultaneously working to transfer new skills to those teams through coaching, training programmes and mentorship. Subscription to NHS Elect provides member organisations with tools and support to drive sustainable innovation and implement best practice locally.

In addition to our work with members we also work with the Department of Health on a range of projects. The DH values our network of NHS organisations and network members value insights and input into emerging healthcare policy and national best practice.
